Why Should the Politicians Have All the Power?

Will they shut down the government or won't they? Anyone else tired of seeing our elected officials strut around posturing for an election year 2 years away? I say why should they have all the power? We should take back our country by staying home 1 day and shutting everything down for 1 day. We should just pick a day and do it. I know people who work in emergency care and health professionals can't just stay home. Neither can police or firemen, but why not everyone else just to remind the idiots in Washington, D.C. who they work for? I think they forget that they work for us not us for them. They work for us not just big business or foreign countries that lend them money they shouldn't be spending. Maybe if we could all just agree on that one point we can all see it is time for a house cleaning of both parties.
